A mini bike can provide many years of service and pleasure,

provided you

take responsibility for safety, proper maintenance and understand the

challenges you may encounter while riding.

This minibike has been designed for younger riders. However, not all young

riders meet the physical and emotional needs for safe riding. Before parents

allow any children to ride this minibike, we strongly recommend that they

read this entire manual to be fully informed before making deciding

their children are ready to ride. Listed below are some of the important

safety measures one should ubderstand before and when riding.

Never ride without a helmet. Helmets signicantly reduce the

number and severity of head injuries. An approved DOT motorcycle helmet

is the most important part of your safety gear. Choose one that ts properly

and is snug on your head. Motorcycle dealers can help in selecting a good

quality helmet with proper t.

Never carry a passenger. This mini bike was designed for one

rider at a time only. There are no passenger foot pegs, foot rests, handles or

seat room for a passenger. Riding with a passenger can impair the driver’s

ability to operate the mini bike which may result in serious injury or death.

Ride o-road only. This mini bike has been designed and built

for o-road riding only. It is not equipped with a headlight, signals, brake

lights or horn which are all required for public road usage. The tires are not

designed for pavement and could become unstable. If you have to cross a

paved area or road, dismount and walk the bike across the pavement.

Ride within your limits. Never attempt to operate this mini

bike in a manner that is beyond your skill level. It takes time to learn o-

road riding skills. Learn to ride step-by-step. Start by riding on safe terrain

at slow speeds and gradually build your skills. Instruction from an experi-

enced rider is strongly recommended.

Be alert for hazards. Any area you ride can present many

hazards. Always scan the terrain ahead of you continuously. Watch for

unexpected turns, drop-os, ditches, rocks, low-hanging limbs and other

riders. Always maintain a low enough speed to stop under control and

react to hazards.

Never drink alcohol and ride. Even one drink can impair your

ability to ride safely and each additional drink worsens your ability to do so.

Remember, it is illegal to operate any motorized vehicle while intoxicated,

including mini bikes.

As a parent, your child’s safety is your rst priority. Riding a mini bike is

very fun, but just like riding a bicycle, bad decisions can result in injury or

death. As a parent you can prevent accidents by making informed decisions

about if, when and how your child will ride. Always supervise your child

when he/she is riding.

Before you allow your child to ride you need to determine if he/she is

ready. Riding readiness can vary from one person to another. Age and

size are not the only factors that help to determine riding readiness.

There are three other factors that you should consider before deciding if

your child is ready to ride.

First, consider your child’s physical ability. A rider must be able to

hold the mini bike up, get on and sit comfortably with both feet on the

ground. The rider must also be able to reach all handlebar controls and

steer the mini bike accurately.

Second, consider your child’s athletic ability. Your child should also be

good at riding a bicycle before riding a mini bike, Determine if your child

is a good judge of speed and distance while riding a bicycle and that

they react with proper foot and hand actions. Any person who does not

have good coordination, balance and agility should not attempt to ride

this mini bike.

Finally, determine your childs mental maturity. It is imperative that you

are honest with yourself when you answer the following questions: Does

your child think through problems and come to logical conclusions?

Does your child obey the rules when they ride their bicycle? If your child

makes bad judgements, takes unnecessary risks and ignores the rules,

they should not ride this mini bike.

If you have determined that your child is ready to ride please remember

the following points:

• Never let your child ride without a helmet.

• Your child’s safety is your responsibility. Do not take it lightly.

• Never push you child to try things before they are ready.

• Always supervise your child when they are riding.

• Proper maintenance and upkeep of the mini bike is key to safe riding.

Any modications or improper accessories added to the

mini bike with parts that are not manufactured by Motovox can make it

unsafe. Motovox strongly recommends that you do not remove any of the

original equipment or make any modications that alter the design and/or

operation of the mini bike.
